LEXINGTON COUNTY, SC (WIS) -

The folks at the Lexington Historic Museum took to Facebook to address the messy visitors at one of their properties.

The photo was posted to their Facebook page on Aug. 27 and shows a large, white stain on a cabin from the 1700s. The curators of the museum are unsure where the stain came from and when it occurred, but says it's one of the reasons why they don't allow food on the site.

Sadly we found icing on the porch of one of our 1770s cabins AGAIN this morning. Presumably, this is from a "cake smash" photo session. We did not have any record of a photographer booking a time slot at our museum. We do not allow food on our historic structures. Not only is this disrespectful to our grounds and buildings, it attracts pests and permanently stains the wood. If we continue to have these incidents we will have to increase police patrol of our grounds.

Highway Patrol troopers say they are searching for a 2001– 2005 Silver Toyota Sequoia or 2004 – 2005 Toyota Tundra with damage to right front headlight assembly and missing right side mirror. (Source: SCHP)
